Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

JUICER, COFFEE POT, CAN OPENER
Question Of The Week 06-25-18
What countertop appliances do you use...
or own but never use?
(Thanks for missing me. I am back and have been absent for no reason except busy. Hope to catch up soon.)
First off, so thankful and relieved that you were missing just because you were busy. :)
We use a toaster, and a coffee pot...those are the only two counter top appliances, BUT I have a glorious new mixing bowl set I can't wait to put on the counter soon!
Thanks Olga. Good to be back. I hope to get caught up today. I forgot that my waffle iron and my George Foreman grill for one is also under the counter.
So glad you were just busy and happy you are back. Missed your questions. Nothing on the counter but under is an appliance graveyard. Need to make a trip to Goodwill.
I wonder if Goodwill would take them. They are awfully picky about what they think they can resell. Thanks for missing the questions. I will try to stay up with them.
Thanks for wondering where I was. It's good to be back...at least I think I am back. My son recently grabbed my food processor out of storage only to take it home and find out it was broken:-(
Another one pleased to see you:) As for unused 'big things' in my kitchen- well there seem to be more of them than those that are used lol The toaster, crock pot and sandwich maker are all in good order. The food processor with attached blender could be in working order, so too could the big mixing thing with all the whisks and hooks and bowls, alongside them in the cupboard is one of those hand held whisking beater thing and a coffee maker thing that has a milk frother for making the cappuccinos that a daughter thought her father needed. We might try them one day, before they go down the road to the charity shop.
All of the above, plus electric jug, toaster...and sometimes, my blender, processor and NutriBullet. Oh! And sometimes my electric jaffle/toasted sandwich maker.
Regular toaster, sandwich toaster, electric kettle, slow cooker, blender, microwave oven, coffee&spice grinder, hand held electric mixer, but rarely, electric frypan, also rarely, and of course they don't all live on my tiny two feet of bench space.
The one appliance I actually own outright (long story) is a small 1100 watt microwave that I use on a daily basis. Every other appliance in the house is almost never used, save for the can opener, oven & stove.
A KitchenAid electric kettle that was purchased and never used until my stove stopped working and now I'm using it to make tea, until I can force myself to purchase a new stove. :)

Thanks for commenting Silver. I am hoping to catch up before the day is out.

ReplyDeleteWelcome back!
Thanks Joe. Good to be back. My appliances look good on the counter also. I forgot to add toaster.
DeleteI have a toaster and a coffee pot on kitchen counter. Blender, mixer, waffle iron and crock pot are stored in a cupboard.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you are posting!

DeleteI have a blender that I dust now and again.
ReplyDeleteI dust my juicer but need to start using it again.
DeleteToday I gave my blender away....
DeleteUnder the counter I have bread maker, crock pot, blender and electric mixer.
ReplyDeleteGlad to be back. I have not been getting notifications of postings and thanks to Chatty Crone, I think I have fixed it.

DeleteLovely to see you, and glad that your absence was just busyness.
ReplyDeleteI have a food processor which rarely gets used.

Hi Cathy:-) Yes, it is most difficult to get rid of appliances that family members gave us. They will know:-)
DeleteAll of the above, plus electric jug, toaster...and sometimes, my blender, processor and NutriBullet. Oh! And sometimes my electric jaffle/toasted sandwich maker.
ReplyDeleteI love my sandwich maker. Everyone has made me remember things that are under the counter that I have forgotten about.
DeleteBy the way...good to have you back, Annie...It's been a while between drinks! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lee. I think I'm back but we will see.

ReplyDeleteWow, you've got a lot under the counter. Surely the microwave is on the counter.
DeleteMixer, toaster, coffeepot that's it. Oh and a pan of my throwing star biscuits...
ReplyDeleteOkay Brig, what are throwing star biscuits?
DeleteThe one appliance I actually own outright (long story) is a small 1100 watt microwave that I use on a daily basis. Every other appliance in the house is almost never used, save for the can opener, oven & stove.
ReplyDeleteI did not even think of listing my microwave as a countertop appliance. You and River are the only ones who did. LOL
